Hey **jazzmine**! My husband did alot of growing up (I mean spent alot of his youth - 5th grade thru high school) in Orofino. His dad worked on the dam. He knew a bunch of kids from Kamiah. We went to a reunion there some years ago and just loved that part of the state. Blackcaps yumm! We also love Riggins, wouldn’t mind retiring there. ---

Mona, you KNOW there are only 6 registered people in Idaho. Be still. maybe no-one will notice the " gulch people". In Idaho, we have dope-fests, we just are too broke to share ---

Have you been to either of those places? And definitely yum on the blackcaps. ---

I’ve always been intreagued by Coeur d’Alene, but I saw a news report a while back that said the place was rife with white supremecists. True? False? ---

Complete and udder bullshit! We likes are darkies! Seriously, not a problem. I believe that per capita, we have way fewer white supremecists than Minneapolis. ---

I don’t live there so I can’t say for sure, but I don’t think there is so much any more since the trial. ---

And Jazzmine would be refering of course to the esteemed Rev. Butler of the Ayran Nation. It’s true we do host a few wacko individuals who get way too much press time. Even in their heyday they were a sad lot. Most of the 100 or so supporters that ever showed up for a parade came from out of state. We kinda miss the entertainment, wattabunchaclowns! ---

Hi! another Idahoan checking in. I live in southern Idaho. Not to far from Poky (that’s Pocatello to you out-of-staters). ---

Both Krisfer and I are in Northern Utah. It would be kinda neat if some kinda 'meet got set up in the Tri-state bordering region… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/idaho/146262.md?page=1)
